A training ground injury looks set to rule Sergio Aguero out of Argentina's upcoming World Cup qualifier against Paraguay, while it could also have implications for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City.
With
a pain in the calf muscle of his left leg, the striker was replaced by
Nicolas Gaitan in a Sunday training match as he went off to work with
the national team's physiotherapists, with the Atletico Madrid man
expected to take the spot in the starting XI for the match - which kicks
off at 01:30 CET on early Wednesday morning - if Aguero cannot recover
in time.
The news will concern his club's coaching staff too, with
tricky matches against Everton and Barcelona approaching on Manchester
City's fixture list - although it should be noted that the Sky Blues
coped fine without him when he was suspended last month, winning three
times in his absence.
